I don’t know how to describe it, but there’s been this feeling growing inside me.
It’s like the world is happening out there and drawing me to it and I just wanted to do something real,
to get out there and be a part of it and touch it.
All you’d need to do is take a look at my journal
and read what my life has been dominated by lately and it’s no wonder I needed to reset.
Attached is a snippet of pictures I’ve extracted from a lengthy photo journal and video documentary
of my trip to the front lines in the Ukraine,
to deliver some much needed ambulances where the Ukrainian army and militia are desperate for them the most, and to help some people in their struggle against a Goliath Monster who’s another Hitler come to life
and repeating what Hitler did with his invasion of Poland leading to World WarII
.
And make no mistake about it, this is the same and if it’s not put in checkright now, the world will be in big trouble, really soon.
This post is going to grow, exponentially, because there’s so much to tell about this trip and what I witnessed. There’s the W4UK- World Summit on The Ukraine that I attended and what great, and positive things I have to share about that.
However, I just want to put this up now, because it’s why I went.
You’ll see a picture in this gallery of me and a soldier who’s crying with gratitude
for our help and these ambulances that will save his mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers lives,
that they are seeing dying right in front of them because they cant get them emergency medical help
or to a hospital,
and now with these ambulances, donated from Americans, they can. 🙂
That moment with those soldiers on the front was as real as life gets,
and let me know why I was drawn to help.
You’ll also see me getting instructions on shooting a rifle.
Not that I wouldn’t have reservations about shooting someone,
but just in case, it was good to know I can hit a can on a poll at the other side of a football field.
And you’ll see a picture of me with General Alexander -> (last name I wont even try to write)
who I drove half way across the Ukraine with. He and I engaged in some interesting conversations
especially one where broken grammar and use of language can have some comical cultural mishaps
when he was thanking us for “helping make sure Ukrainain Army fighting war have happy ending”
to which I replied:
“You’re looking at the wrong guy for that pal,
I’m just here to deliver some ambulances and help get some kids out of harms way “. 😀

Hey Stormster, well, to answer you as best I can, first I didn’t fly into or near a War Zone. I flew into Vienna Austria and was driven to the Border and from there was driven into the country and across check point after check point and it took two days go get near the Red Zone.
Regarding the resources and support that is going over there, It is going where it’s needed. Simply because it’s so Desperately needed by the people who are receiving it and I went to this big “World for Ukraine” Summit in Poland on my way back and the topic of corruption was addressed in depth and in this case and this time around , there is now much more oversight, and with transparency and efficiently being a major addition to the processes because nobody’s going stand for that level of corruption anymore. It is a case where right and good are triumphing over bad and past wrongs.
And regarding what we do at home, here in America🇱🇷
I hear ya Babe, and I’m with You. You and I are kindred spirits and especially with our own war being fought at home against foreign adversaries that have weaponized immigration to flood our cities and weaken our economy by putting unsupportable financial demands on us that’s turning our cities into ghettos filled with the homeless and refugee. We need our resources to go to our own needs first.
But we can’t ignore these global events either because if Putin is not put in check it will cost us much more on every level later,
And one last thing that I really got a sense of over there,
I felt such pride in being an American again,
helping maintain our position as a world leader
and defender of human rights and democracy that’a under siege around the globe.
An unexpected bonus of volunteering to go over and putting myself in harms way to help these people defend themselves against Russia’s violence towards them,
is that in addition to feeling like I was helping humanity and people in need
I loved knowing and feeling that I was also SERVING MY COUNTRY
And being recognized by Ukrainians as AMERICA to the rescue 😉
Kind of my American self saying to these guys:
” I’m an American and we’re not going to let these invaders F____k with you .
We’re a big brother infantry coming to your rescue “
